摘要
By matching the electronic energy levels of a photochromic molecule with those of a semiconducting polymer in a solid-state blend, charge traps in the polymer bulk can selectively be controlled through the state of the molecule. The resulting device exhibits traditional diode characteristics and allows for reversible modulation of the current through the device via in-situ charge-trap switching (see Figure).
